Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

(Kelvin's wife reply) : We dropped 培基 and accepted 播道(actually we dropped another one more). Both should be good. Both 校風 is good. We asked some 播道 students on the streets, and also talked to Principal Mr. Lo. He is sincere and keen to develop this school. This school should be of reasonable standard and the students are happy to study there.

Uptill now, we are not sure our decision is correct or not.

Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

Don't you think 播道 is too new ?
Why did you drop 培基off ?

As you said that both of them are good, how do you make the decision

It's quite difficult to make the decision. Is there any parents whose child is studying at 播道 or 培基 ? Please share with us. Please ...........

Hi Samhei,

Present! My son's studying in EC. What do you expect my sharing?

By the way, what's your child's opinion of studying these two schools? Don't ignore his/her idea! Caring is better than choosing, right?

Thanks for your response.

I would like to know :
1.  校風
2.  standard (is it too difficult ?)
3.  teachers (how's the turnover rate, are there too many new teachers?)
4.  the environment around the school
5.  students (do they enjoy learning ?)
6.  extra-curriculum activities
7.  how the school help those students whose standard is low?

Thanks

Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

HI Samhei,

Yes, EC is a new school, so are many DSS except  those oldies SPCC, DBS.

1. EC puts emphasis on students' conduct in its intake process.  It may help maintain 校風.  EC also advocates life studies.  It is a mandatory course.  It may help maintain 校風 too.
2. Your kid had attempted their interview, right?  It is really not an interview but short quiz and your kid passed its standard, right?
3. EC is a new school.  Now they have 22 teachers (Primary section + Sec section) and Principal Lo said EC will double their teachers size this year.  Logical.  Because they have doubled their students size...they will have P2 and S2 next year.
4. Enviornment now is good.  BTW, TKO is developing so there is kind of uncertainties..
5. We have "interviewed" some students and parents at school, on the road nearby, and asked a friend whose son is studying S1 at EC now.  They all have positive feedbacks.
6. Quite a lot.  I particularly like to see their Principal Lo has led a mountaineering/hiking programme.
7. Sorry, I have no solid idea on this.  Principal Lo told me EC not only wants top students but students who can be nurtured.  He is quite approachable and I trust you can asked him this directly if you have concern.  BTW, I guess they have 1/2 to 2/3 band 1 students this year...

As parent, I really share your feeling that choosing a school for the children is panic!

Hi Samhei,

No thx! Major contribution is from kelvinc2000. We should give thx to kelvinc2000!

>As EC has the continuous assessment for their student. Is there any exam / tests for them?

idea: The whole school calendar is divided to 3 terms. Each term has tests and a summative assessment at the end.

Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

So, do you mean that EC only have assessment, but no EXAM at any term?

Are they using Mandarin to teach Chinese subjects? How's the S1 student to get use in using Mandarin?

Thanks!

Is 培基 using Mandarin for teaching Chinese subject?

Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

Hi snoopy008,

I also have no idea!  Though my son will study at EC in coming Sep 2007 and he is a band 1 student.

I have once asked Principal Lo if EC has admitted 1/3 band 1 and 2/3 band 2 students LAST year (i.e. 2006).  He had not comment but said he also believed top band 1 students might have gone for EMB's allotment scheme.

I just believe EC's "exam-like" interview can really select students who apt for English lecture and they "will be" band 1 or at most top band 2 students.

With one year "track record", hope EC can attract and intake more band 1 students and I GUESS and WISH 1/2 to 2/3 band 1 student in year 2007.

Kelvin

Hi snoopy008,

I've no idea to the average banding of students of EC (making clear the difference between bandings of students and that of schools because there is no school falling in different bandings, it's the bandings(one & only one classification time in the allocation of school seats) of STUDENTS ONLY. I think that EC is a band 1 school independent of bandings of students.
My son was lucky in falling(classified) into band 1 group and is studying EC (both effectively & efficiently, the most important to us is his happiness in study) . My daughter is lucky and is being observed to fall into band 1 group too. She likes her elder brother's life of study in EC. She hope to study in EC.

William28 & Kelvinc2000,
Thanks both of you for the reply.

William28,
Is your daughter a P.5 student now? My daughter is studying P.5 now and I would like to know EC more in the coming months so that I can make up my mind at the end of this year.

Kelvinc2000,
Would you elaborate more on the "exam-like" interview? How was your son being interviewed?

My son was being asked to do a Chinese and English comprehension test, though in oral but not written form, and was asked to pin point errors in some maths questions and finally was asked to read a para in putonghua.

William28,
其實我很希望女兒可以輕鬆愉快地學習, 但我有些擔心在太輕鬆的氣氛下會否變成鬆散呢? 請問你兒子的功課量如何? 會主動學習嗎?

kelvinc2000,
請問學校怎樣 interview 家長呢?

Re: 播道 vs 沙田培基 (急!)

Hi snoopy008,

我覺得輕鬆愉快地學習是要負代價的, 其中的代價是家長的參與, 舉自己為例:
1. 受慣填鴨教育的小學生的兒子, 他在初中真的可以"變成"主動學習嗎? 小六到初中只隔著暑假, 他們就能自己由被動學習模式去到主動學習模式嗎? 所以我要多留意或提醒他的責任及繼續他的其他活動. 我要配合學校, 給他時間成長, 希望他的自理能力有所提升.
2. 我可以放心, 他能完成責任的, 他在學校已完成部份功課, 回家後都可以玩及繼續做功課. 佢自己辦妥!
3. 我鼓勵他多看點課外書, 做運動, 彈琴..., 檢視自己的生活, 其實都好充實! 試問如果他不讀EC, 而轉讀多功課的英中(又要佢好彩入到先講

), 他可能冇時間發展自己的興趣或做自己喜歡的事!
